Super User bilgerat Posted April 9, 2011 Super User Posted April 9, 2011 Got this toad yesterday in the cold and rain throwing, of all things, a BPS "Crappie Maxx" crankbait in a watermelon splatter pattern. She was 17" long. I don't carry a scale but she was well over 5 lb. This is where a smooooth drag pays off. 1 Quote

Super User Dwight Hottle Posted April 9, 2011 Super User Posted April 9, 2011 Very Nice. Back to your roots with the ultralight. Quote
bassman31783 Posted April 9, 2011 Posted April 9, 2011 Nice fish. I've got to try kayak fishing. Looks so much fun. Quote
WdyCrankbait Posted April 9, 2011 Posted April 9, 2011 Very nice fish! Love fishing on ultralights! Quote
Super User Bassn Blvd Posted April 9, 2011 Super User Posted April 9, 2011 It's all relative. When you can't get the bigguns to bite on the heavier equipment then drop down to the ultralite and go for the 2 and 3 pounders with #4 and 6 mono. Nice fish! Quote
Global Moderator Bluebasser86 Posted April 9, 2011 Global Moderator Posted April 9, 2011 Nice fish! Norman makes a tiny little crankbait like that and it's a great bait for bass and tends to get pretty good sized fish to bite when it's tough for me. Good work! Quote
